john wick x reader hc/ramble
Tumblr media
cw/tw: um..a little silly, a little goofy, a little fluff, age gap ( reader is 20+, John is in his 40’s), mentions of tattoos, gn!reader
an: I’m in my keanu reeves era; also this gif makes me dizzy🥴😵; anyways enjoy whores
masterlist
first of all heS GENTLE I DONT CARE WHAT ANYONE ELSE SAYS HES MY POOKIE BEAR CUDDLE MUFFIN
oh my god his hugs :(
i just need to lay down on his chest and for him to rub his hand up and down my back reassuringly after a long day >:(
he loves when you scratch his beard like a dog(is this weird lol) he finds it so domestic and intimate
ok so...he’s old, so let’s imagine he stayed out of the crime world… he has such old guy hobbies its so cute (he's beekeeping age yk)
he’s into gardening, he's in a band (bassist duh), he fixes up cars and motorcycles
the first time you noticed his back tattoo was when you two went swimming for the first time together
you didn't want to be a creep, but you had to stop yourself from drooling over it the rest of the day
you actually had to stop yourself from licking him head to toe like a popsicle but
speaking of tattoos, he LOOOOVES when you trace his back tattoo; if he can't sleep and you start to trace the pattern, he just melts
and if you have tattoos, he loves to do the same to you
he'll kind of lull you to sleep like that, taking his time with light kisses in between
on another note...i bet he does the 'dad on a vacation snoring so loud he has shaken then entire room awake' snore
and when you get woken up by said snore you're a little annoyed, but whenever this happens you just move to the guest room
after moving to the guest room and getting settled down, you get woken up ....again, only to see this BIG SCARY 6 FOOT ASSASSIN curled up next to you under the covers, hugging your waist as if you were a stuffed animal he couldn't sleep without :(
and you're like "...i actually came in here to remove myself from you-"
he's creeps around the house very quietly, almost like a ghost (unintentionally)
you could be doing laundry, folding the clothes and when you turn around to put them away, he's just there in the doorway like 🧍‍♂️ scaring the life out of you
once you two move in together, he'll gift you a dog :( like you're own little family :(
assuming that reader is in their 20's and john is in is 40's, how could you possibly pass up any opportunity to make old man jokes about him <3
" you know, in a couple of years i get to put you in the old folks home..."
"yeah right🙄, i'd like to see you try honey"
he takes care of you in every way; he makes sure you take your meds, and that you eat at least three meals a day; small everyday things like that :(
if you fail a big test or have a bad day at work he's waiting for you at home with a tub of icecream and ready to spoil you with affection
even tho he's a man of very little words, he'll know exactly what to say to make you feel better with words of praise and affection :(

ok i've seen some posts about the tumblr alternative cohost but none that were actually helpful so!
(disclaimer: i am very new to this website. users who have been there longer can and should chime in with additions and/or corrections)
Cohost Introduction Post
Tumblr media
What is cohost?
Cohost is a fledgling website that is essentially a tumblr clone, but with its own culture and site-specific features. It is also very much a work in progress. You are encouraged to talk in the cohost forum to suggest changes for devs, report bugs, and upvote other people's suggestions. This website WILL grow and change over time. And as such, I do not know if/when the information I share here will be outdated. Edit: To answer an ask I received, anyone can join cohost without an invite. It used to be invite-only. It is not this way anymore.
Is "adult content" allowed there?
Yes. Cohost is not on the app store, meaning that it is not subject to Apple's specifications. You can post illustrations, writing, and photographs (cohost does not support any video formats at this time, just gifs). Cohost has an elaborate filtering and trigger warning system (moreso than tumblr), and you can disable adult content for your entire account or for individual tags. I actually don't engage with the adult content at all on there. Visual CSEM (both real and fictional) is specifically forbidden (although frankly I think the guidelines could be stricter wrt written content. Still, does seem to handle this better than AO3 does, going as far to say that written content about real minors is forbidden.)
How are minors protected?
The minimum age to join cohost is 16, and requires proof of parental permission to join. Users who are under 18 are automatically age-gated and cannot view adult content.
If cohost isn't on the app store, how is it used?
You can, of course, use cohost on a computer, but it is designed with mobile in mind. Opening the website on any IOS browser, clicking "share", and then "add to home screen" will install an app for you to use. The same can be done on an android. There is a guide here.
How does cohost work?
First, you create an account. Then you wait for approximately two days (read: weekdays) for the account to be activated. This is done to prevent spam bots. In the meantime, edit your profile. List some interests, your pronouns, your other social media links. Give yourself an icon. Note: icon and banner file sizes are small. You may need to shrink and compress images.
After the two days are up, make your first post! Write a basic introduction (with what you feel comfortable you feel sharing) and list some interests you like, maybe some hobbies, media, etc. And then tag this post with "#welcome to cohost". This will let existing members know that someone new has joined, and they may initiate conversation and/or follow you.
Next, go to the search and type in "The Cohost Global Feed" and click on the tag. Bookmark this tag. This is essentially one giant community space where you can find random users. (There is currently some discourse on the website as to whether this tag existing is a "bad thing" or not because "cohost isn't supposed to have a global tag". Just ignore that lol). Next, go back to search and type in things you like. TV shows, maybe. Video games. Music. Anything. See if people have posted in the tags. Follow them. Comment on their stuff. Click "like" to bookmark the post if you want to.
Most crucially, make sure that you bookmark the actual tag so you can look in that tag again later without having to manually type it each and every time. Also, you get a feed called "bookmarked tags" which allows you to scroll through all of them at once, which replaces the "for you" feature other websites have.
You can "share" a post (called "rebug" in user slang) which serves the same purpose as a reblog on tumblr. In a rebug, you can add your own tags or comment in the body of the post. Cohost users do not talk in tags as much as tumblr users - they tend to prefer to speak in the body of a rebug, or in the comment section (replies). At this time, you cannot view all reblogs. But you can view all comments in the comment section. Any post that is rebugged will preserve the tags of the OP, with any additional tags added being attributed to you. Rebugs are named after the website mascot Eggbug, a purple bee-like insect.
Posts are called "chosts" - and shitposting is called "shitchosting." Two examples of global shitposting tags are "#css crimes" - which is when a person does goofy things with the HTML/CSS editor to make colorful text, fake chat windows, and such - and "#shitchosting" which is a general shitposting tag. I've also seen people use tags like "#random".
If a post makes you laugh, check out the OP's profile. See if they post frequently, and if you have any common interests. If you realize you want to block or mute someone instead, you can.
You can send asks just like on tumblr, but your inbox must be manually opened first. So remember to do that.
How do I look at my own blog?
This is one of my gripes about the UI. You would think, intuitively, you would click here (at the top of the screen). But you would be wrong!
Tumblr media
It is ACTUALLY under the sidebar menu, called "Profile." And I'm not the only one to to complain about this. (To get back to your dashboard, by the way, you click on the cohost logo.)
Tumblr media
Are there sideblogs?
Yes! Each sidepage (sideblog) has its OWN set of likes AND followed pages (blogs). This allows you to easily switch between multiple sets of dashboards. A lot of users use this to have a SFW dashboard and an adult content dashboard. But it works like tumblr, too. You can have a side page/dashboard for whatever you'd like. Maybe one of your pages is for programming. Maybe another is for photography. You switch between your pages by clicking the arrow next to your icon/username at the top of the screen. ("Ohhhhh.... THAT'S what that's for.")
What's the userbase on there like?
Mostly programmers. Trans people. Furry artists. Plural systems. Furry trans plural programmers. Certainly a lot of shitposters. The website is trans-run and, as such, has zero tolerance for TERFs. Everyone seems pretty friendly from what I can tell. And there's very much a culture of "follow someone randomly based on their vibes" that doesn't happen as much on tumblr. Tumblr is more like "I really like this TV show, I'm going to follow 40 blogs about just this interest." Because the cohost community is so much smaller, there is a lot less content overall, especially fandom content. You can't follow 40 fandom pages because your fandom tag has a total of 3 posts, all made by one person approximately a year ago (well. for me anyway).
Cohost, then, actually has much more in common with real-life socialization. You seek out people with interests that may be very different from your own, and to find a common interest is very exciting! Unlike tumblr, you are encouraged to tag as much as possible. This allows your posts to be seen, to find common interests. And, of course, don't forget to look in "#Welcome To Cohost" too! You may find some new friends there.
What file formats can I post in?
Currently, I am aware of basic image formats working (like jpeg, png) animated gifs, and mp3s. You currently cannot upload videos to cohost. I believe the reason is not related to server costs, but rather as a way to curb the uploading of copyrighted content.
How does cohost make money?
There are no ads, and yet, as far as I am aware, cohost is operating comfortably. There is, however, an entirely optional "cohost plus" that is $5 USD a month. Currently, there are a few perks, but not enough to convince me.
What if I think something about cohost should change?
Cohost has a forum where users can submit ideas for features and other users can discuss/upvote those ideas.
Here is a list of posts made for newcomers to read:

Xiao x GN Reader Midnight Snack Run (College AU)
🍮- is my signature for my fics @slimearchon
Pairing: Xiao x GN Reader
Word Count: 1980
Title: Xiao x GN Reader Midnight Snack Run (College AU)
Warning: None
Summary: You have no snacks left in your apartment and beg your boyfriend Xiao to go to the store with you.
(Gif not mine credit to owner.)
Tumblr media
🍮-You huffed, air flooding out of your nose in frustration, you closed the cabinet doors with a thunk. The cupboards were bare of any delightful snacks, you had eaten everything throughout the month and it now laid bare of any colorful packaging.
🍮-You walked off to find your boyfriend, intent on voicing your grievances to him,  you passed the window as you went. The moon lazes behind a mass of clouds, the full moon giving off a cool glow that lit up the night. You knew it was well past midnight.
🍮-You made sure your boyfriend wasn’t streaming his game before you went over and pouted up a storm. You knew the asking him to go out this late would be a challenge. The male was a homebody and he enjoyed his time inside as much as he could.
🍮-You switched on your persuasion skills, really wanting some snacks.
🍮-“Darling?” You hummed, coming up behind the dark-haired, male and resting your head on his, the softness of his hair caressing your skin.
🍮-“Yes?” He responded, his eyes not straying from the PC screen. His character was going around blasting people with an energy gun.
🍮-“We’re out of snacks. Can we go to the store?” You asked, leaning down and peppering his cheek in kisses.
🍮-“Now? Isn’t it too late for something like that?” He tilted his head, his tongue swiping against his lips when he ran into a group of enemies and he was focused on shooting his way out of the situation.
🍮-You honestly didn’t like pulling him away from his games. He was a studious college student who planned out his whole week down to bathroom and shower breaks. He only allowed himself a handful of hours a week to game and relief the week's stress.
🍮-You were nervous when you both started dating and he mentioned his hobby of playing PC games. You had heard all of the horror stories of having a gamer for a boyfriend. Gamers who ignore their partners in order to focus on the glowing screen in front of them.
🍮-You were pleased when Xiao was nothing like that, he always made sure to shower you in attention and you were content before he logged on to play. If you needed his attention he was quick to push his playtime aside in a heartbeat.
🍮-The guilt you felt was outweighed by the need for snacks. You were craving all of your usual sweets and chips. The fact that you were also out of soda was making you crave the carbonated drink even more.
🍮-“Please, I’m really craving some chips and candy right now.” You pleaded, sliding your arms around him and rubbing them on his slightly toned chest. This caught his attention, his eyes darting from the screen to you, his eyebrows pinching together as he was processing your gentle touch.
🍮-You knew how much he melted when it came to you touching his chest. Like a cat who arched into someone rubbing its spine.
🍮-“Are you sure we’re completely out? I thought I saw some chips in the cabinet.” He asked, he rotated his shoulder to get his headset off his ears and down to his shoulders.
🍮-You shook your head mournfully, “Nope, I ate those the other day. There’s nothing, not even crackers.”
🍮-He nodded, exiting the game, and powering his PC down. He rested his headphone on the desk. “Well, I suppose we can go now. None of my friends are online anyways.” He stood up from his gaming chair, the sound of the wheels rolling across the hardwood floor filled your ears.
🍮-“You sure? I can go by myself.” Seeing him get out of the chair made your guilt flair up once again. You mentally chastised yourself for letting your gluttony stop him from relieving some stress.
🍮-You supposed going to the store by yourself wouldn’t be too bad. It would be a quick trip anyways. You would probably be back before he could even play three rounds of his game.
🍮-He scoffed, “Like I would be able to focus on playing when you are out and about at night.” He shook his head, raking a hand through his hair to fix what his headset disturbed.
🍮-Silver and black rings covered his fingers, the gems on them twinkling under the overhead light. When he pulled his hair back he exposed his pierced ear, the rings and studs decorating his pale ear. His gothic style was truly mouthwatering.
🍮-Before your thoughts drifted to other ideas of helping him relive stress you saw him looks over your outfit. A comfy pair of shorts and a t-shirt was your winning combo for the night. You liked clothes that were comfortable and these certainly were.
🍮-“Where is your jacket? It’s starting to get cold at night, change into some pants too. You’ll freeze out there in shorts.” He instructed, going over to the jacket closet to fetch you a hoodie and putting one on himself.
🍮-The stars in the sky slowly flashed between bright to dim, the cool night hair slightly humid, it wasn't cold enough to see your breath in the wind but it was cold enough to turn your nose into an ice cube with every breath.
🍮-You squeezed the hand that was holding Xiao’s. Loving the way his soft hands clasped against yours.
🍮-You enjoyed the little exercise of the night, the fresh night air was always invigorating. Soon the bright lights of the shop came into view, you were happy the grocery store was open in at such late hours.
🍮-You liked to buy your snacks in bulk and the twenty-four-hour gas station was much too pricey for just a few snacks that wouldn’t last the night.
🍮-Xiao left your side for a bit to go and grab the cart, he reached for a white disinfectant wipe to clean the handrail. He didn’t like the idea of what other people touched while using it, with flu season around the corner he was more on edge about getting sick.
🍮-You liked when you went shopping with him, he wouldn’t allow you to push the cart so you spent your time walking up and down the isles, with him trailing behind you. You plucked the things you wanted from the aisles, looking back at Xiao every time you put something in the cart. He had a mental budget and you would question whether you went over the budget or not with each glance.
🍮-You didn’t pick all the snacks to your taste. You made sure to get Xiao his favorites as well.
🍮-He had a pretty bland pallet, not liking when things were too sweet or salty. He did enjoy sour foods, like vinegar chips or sour gummy worms. You would take a few from his bag just like he would do the same to you if he also enjoyed your chosen snack.
🍮-You set the case of soda’s down into the cart, the heavy box making the cart sag down a bit with it’s weight. He stepped back from the cart and nodded to you. He reached into his black jeans and pulled out his black leather wallet.
🍮-If you looked closely enough you could see a picture of yourself in one of the leather pockets. He was a big softie that liked to keep you with him wherever he went. He pulled out his credit card and handed it to you.
🍮-“Here take this and go check out. I’m gonna go see if the bakery has any almond tofu for sale.” He motioned to the far end of the store where the bakery resided.
🍮-You smiled, dropped a kiss on his lips when you slid past him to grab ahold of the cart. “Okay, I’ll meet you up front.”
🍮-You rolled the cart away and made your way to the checkout section. Holding yourself back from plucking a few more things off the shelf now that Xiao wasn’t here to authorize the purchase.
🍮-The store was empty so you had no trouble walking up to a free stall and being the only customer. A man with teal hair and eyes greeted you with a smile, his hair tied up in dual braid, you found the hairstyle unusual for a male but nodded at his choice of style.
🍮-Your boyfriend’s own gothic style not the cup of tea for most people but it was one of the things that drew you to him.
🍮-“Hi, just these.” You said, unpacking everything from the cart onto the counter.
🍮-“I see you have fallen prey to the midnight munchies.” The cashier grinned as he got to work on scanning your items.
🍮-“Guilty.” You chuckled, looking down at all the snacks you had gotten.
🍮-He picked up one of the sweet and locked eyes with you, “These are my favorite, looks like we have the same taste.”
🍮-“Yeah.” You laughed, not really knowing how to respond to that.
🍮-“I wonder if we share any other interests.” He said, giving you a flirty smile as he finished scanning the last item.
🍮-You froze, not really expecting to be hit on so late at night. He was certainly handsome in his own way but you had no interest in anyone else besides your sweet and charming boyfriend. You didn’t have to answer the male.
🍮-You were engulfed in a hug from behind, the calming scent of your boyfriend making you relax.
🍮-“I’m sure you don’t.” Xiao said, his voice stern and leaving not room to argue. He dropped a small pan of almond tofu onto the counter, the cashier was quick to scan it and put it with the rest of the snacks.
🍮-He clearly wasn’t expecting you to have a boyfriend, he avoid your eyes as he continued with the transaction.
🍮-Xiao plucked his card from your hands and swiped it. His fingers rough when it came to pounding in his password into the machine.
🍮-He plucked all of the bags up and onto his one arm, the other one wrapped tightly around you. He gave a curt nod to the male as he swept you away from the man. You felt bad for being a bit rude but let Xiao pull you out of the store.
🍮-Once out into the night air he let out a steady breath. “Let’s go home, bluejay.”
🍮-The walk home seemed to go by much faster than the one over. Soon you were back in your apartment and changing into more comfortable clothes. Xiao didn’t want to go back to his computer desk, he said he was in the mood to watch a movie with you instead.
🍮-Not one to ever turn down cuddling on the couch while you munched on snacks, you made quick work of getting your throw blanket settled own on the two of you and situating the newly purchased snacks on the coffee table for quick access.
🍮-The only lights that illuminated the room was the TV and the flickering candle on the coffee table. The sound of you munching away on a bag of chips was drowned out by the movie. Every so often Xiao would hand feed you some of his gummy worms.
🍮-His nose was near your temple as you rested into his body, a delicate kiss was planted on your temple every now an then, repaying you back for when you sprinkled his face in kisses earlier. With your snacks in hand and receiving affection from your boyfriend you were in pure joy.
🍮-What a blissful way to spend the night.
I love Xiao when it comes to a college au. I always picture him being a quiet goth gamer boy who has a lot of love to give. I hope you liked my version of him. Let me know if you had a nice time reading! 
Be sure to reblog and leave a note, both really motivate me to write more. Have a great day/night. 💛

that time you made him a sweater - chenle oneshot
hello! i'm back😊 before this year ends hopefully i can put a couple more stories out, for this holiday season i already have a few in line. this would be the first one of my mini dream fluff series, idk i just miss them nowadays and a bunch of cute scenarios keep popping in my head😂 hope you like it!
For my other works you can check them out here, and for my other story series’ you can check them out here.
All works are copyrighted ©scarletwinterxx 2022 . Do not repost, re-write without the permission of author.

Tumblr media
"Absolutely not"
"Even for me?"
On any other occasion, Chenle would've easily succumbed to his girlfriend's cuteness. Not today though, he's had enough embarrassing moments in the airport to last him several lifetimes (e.g. when the dream members dressed up in matching neon green outfits). So just this once he's trying his best not to yet again fold under your request
"Baby, do you want me to perish?" he asks back
"You're being dramatic, and this isn't even that embarrassing. Do you think it is? I made it myself" well now he feels like an a-grade asshole, you were so excited to come over and show him your finished project.
While he was gone overseas you can't stop talking about this gift you made for him, a knitted sweater. It's a thing you do whenever he goes oversea and can't be with you, to distract yourself from missing him too much you find a hobby to do. Something to occupy your time.
What he didn't expect was for it to be so... bright. He's sure if he wore it outside it would cause some traffic accident. It's even brighter than the matching neon green hoodie him and the other dream members wore before.
He doesn't really have a problem wearing it, but nowadays his closet is composed of that one jogger pants he love, a black shirt, and his favorite jacket. The color palette you chose would stand out too much, he's just worried someone might notice and asks question where it came from. It's not like he's trying to hide you, that's the farthest from the truth. If he could he would show you off and all your silly gifts he cherishes so much to the world but your safety comes first, and in order to that he has to keep things private.
"I love it, who said I didn't" he says, taking it from your grasp before pulling you in for tight hug. Immediately the frown turned to a big smile, returning the hug and tangling your arms around him.
There's really no other comfort you need, his hugs were all you wanted day and night.
"I'll wear it loud and proud the next time I go out. I promise" he tells you, kissing you on the cheeks in between every word
"Really?"
"Yes" all thoughts of holding his ground is gone, already succumbing to your cuteness. And the truth is any gift from you is precious to him. "I'll tell stylist noona to make my next outfit with this" he promises, this time earning a kiss from you.
"Even if you feel embarrassed?"
"Doesn't matter, you made it for me. I'll wear it either way"
"Good, I already started on another one so give me a couple days to finish..."

Lips and Kiss (Idia ver.)
Tumblr media
Notes: Idia X fem reader, I wanted to make it longer but I was like nah, short, fluff, gif is a hint as to what to come
There was no doubt that Idia was smart, he was able to make several machines whenever the opportunity arrived. Though people say lovers tend to share similar skills or hobbies, you differ from that. You couldn’t even piece together a lego set of a 500-piece puzzle. That didn’t mean you hated them, rather you enjoyed how challenging it was. Even so, you had bought a brand new 100- piece puzzle to prove to your lover that you could do it. Idia had no doubt you would make it to at least half-way.
You: What do you think? I made it, now I need to find the missing piece. Idia: Where did you buy this? It has your face on it… You: I’m practicing self-love so I asked Sam if he had a puzzle making kit and BAM he had one! Idia: … Why am I not surprised? You: So, I only need to find the last couple ones… Oh here we are. Idia: You got really good at this, I’m really shocked. You: Of course! I practiced with several other ones, and I made this, so I think it helps. *places the last one in* Tada! I finished it! Now I have one for you~ Idia: Huh? Where did you pull that one from? *looks around* You: You said you wanted to try it out, so I got one for you, look I made this one with Lucius on it.
After passing the puzzle board to Idia you leaned in and gave him a small peck on the cheek for good luck. Instead of stopping, you suddenly craved a little more and so you took Idia’s face and leaned in for a kiss but stopped midway. You suddenly pulled back to remember that he had a puzzle to do. Idia didn’t stop though, he pulled you back to him and gave you a quick kiss on the lips before starting the puzzle.
Idia turned his head away from yours to focus on the puzzle, although his hands weren’t placing anything together. Taking your hands you turned Idia’s face to face once again, then in a soft voice you said, “There it is, that’s the face I wanted to see”. Smiling to yourself at how cute Idia’s embarrassed face looked you felt another kiss welcome you from him.

All I want is a waltz…
A/N: Hi guys, this is my debut of contributing something to the fandom and I hope you like it <3
It’s soft, it's sweet and I’m slightly nervous to put it out here. Please come say hi and tell me what you think!! I’d love to make new friends in this fandom!!
My inspiration/gif source
Word count: 1.7k 
Pairing: Harry/(Y/N), any era
Tags: dancing, ballet, fluff, just softness and comfort
Summary: (Y/N) picks up ballet as a hobby again and gets really excited about it. Harry is being the supportive and soft boyfriend and makes a dream come true.
Tumblr media
—-----
Harry is all nestled up on the couch when he hears the front door fall closed. “I’m baaaack”, He hears her shout down the hall, followed up by some rustling and shuffling. He sets his book down and looks up the hallway with anticipation, hoping to get a glimpse of his girlfriend. “How did it go, love?” he asks, curious to see her reaction. “Ahhh it was so much fun”, (Y/N) giddily hops down the hallway towards the big couch. “I did a double pirouette! And then we started working on a new waltz combination that was absolutely gorgeous!” Her eyes are sparkling as she talks and Harry can’t help himself but smile. Completely absorbed in her thoughts she puts her pointer finger on her lower lip. “I am still not friends with doing ronde de jambes but maybe I’ll get there.” Then she leans in closer to him. “I used to skip them in the online classes all the time but there’s really no way around them, when your teacher is watching you like a hawk.”, she says in a hushed voice just to break out in giggles a moment later. Harry silently smirks up to her and gives her a peck on the cheek, still enjoying the show of giddy rambles.
“But really Harry, I am so thrilled about that new combination”, (Y/N) grabs his hands and gives them a firm squeeze. “I’ve been listening to waltzes the entire drive home. It will never leave my mind, I hope we will continue to work on it next week” she sighs dreamily, pulling up Harry's hands to cover her reddened cheeks. “I’m glad you enjoyed class, petal. You were so hyped when you left the house and now look at you, you're glowing.”
Harry has always been a very supportive boyfriend but seeing how much joy the classes she took brought to (Y/N), they gradually became a highlight of his week as well. It’s just so sweet to see her reaction once she has made her way back home or even how she acts during the entire day with the promise of a ballet class at night. Ever since (Y/N) picked up ballet again, the whole atmosphere in the apartment changes each tuesday. As the anticipation towards class grew, classical music blasts through the speakers and there is no such thing as walking anymore. Whatever she does, wherever she goes, (Y/N) is dancing along to the music. Harry finds it very endearing to watch her move so gracefully through the entire apartment. If he had known that ballet brought her this much fun, he would’ve encouraged (Y/N) earlier to pick up her old hobby again. 
Ballet classes for adults were a rarity from the small town (Y/N) lived in before. She quit ballet in her late teens back then and it hadn’t crossed her mind to go searching for studios nearby as they moved together. The whole act of moving, the beginning of her new semester at university and Harry trying to wrap up his album were overwhelming on it’s own. But some nights it was just too much for her, she felt like there was a lot of planning going on, always keeping her mind busy and leaving her with so much physical energy left in her. She needed some sort of hobby to find some balance. Something to go out of the house for. Something that’ll keep her mind from buzzing and her body from getting jittery at night when she’s trying to wind down from the day. 
“Yes, that studio really is a dream come true, everythings perfect there and the people are sooo nice”, with a kiss on each back of Harry's hands she lets them go and walks away from the couch. “I’ll be right back. I need to shower now, I’m unbearably sweaty”, (Y/N) laughs as she walks over to the bathroom and leaves Harry on the couch with his book. 
Harry is so submerged in his book that he doesn’t even notice (Y/N) sneaking back in the room until she hugs him over the back of the couch, nuzzling into his neck. “I know that dancing is something you really enjoy”, he hears her say. Harry’s ears perk up and he begins to smirk. Let’s see where this goes, he thinks and already has an idea of what might be on her mind. “That I do, love”, is all he says, looking at her. She just came out of the shower, only wearing panties and a big t-shirt, stray, wet locks of hair dangling down on Harry's shoulders as she is leaning close. “Sooooooo…”, she fondles the collar of Harry’s t-shirt to keep her hands occupied. “I was wondering, if maybe we could dance together?” He looks over to her and sees a shy look on her face. (Y/N) rolls herself over the back of the couch to let herself fall overdramatically in the lap of her boyfriend, arms flopped over her head, gesturing as she talks. “When I see you dance, it’s mostly that little happy dance, or on stage with Pauli that best friend dance. And it's sweet and I love it so much but I was actually wondering if we could dance a waltz together..?” Her shoulders rise and she squints her eyes with a faithful smile towards him, now fondling with the hem of her own T-shirt, waiting slightly insecure for a response. Harry chuckles lightly and is already all in, but (Y/N) continues: “I know, I know,  here we go again with the waltz, but hear me out. I have always dreamed of dancing a pas de deux in ballet or even a normal waltz with a partner. But we never had enough boys at our little ballet school back then and…”, (Y/N) lets out a heavy sigh, “I don’t know, that class just brought that dream up and it’s all I can think of right now.” (Y/N) rambles through her sentences and ends in a pout. Harry leans down to kiss her. “I’d love to dance a waltz with you,” Harry says fondly. With those words out, there is no holding back anymore for her, as she pulls Harry down for another sloppy kiss. It’s messy and sweet and her hands frame Harry’s face and hold on to him tight. The kiss ends in giggles and (Y/N) jumps up to get things ready. She pulls up her phone to look up one of her favorite songs and connects it to the audio system they have in the living room. Harry slowly walks over to her, to see how things are gonna take place. He might have done the Treat People with Kindness Choreography, quite a bit of dancing in his time with OneDirection and the casual ballroom or slow dance at weddings and family gatherings. But it’s all a bit rusty and he deeply hopes for some guidance, glancing over to his girlfriend. (Y/N) is completely taken in by her search for the perfect song and is unaware of being watched. She looks so soft in the dim light of the living room, her hair lies on her shoulders, slowly scrunching up in precious curls he loves so much.
“Okay this is the one I had in mind, might not be the most classical piece, but it’s slow enough for us to figure this out”, she says, putting her phone next to the speakers, turning towards him “It’s been some time, right? Do you want me to explain the basic step pattern?”she asks as she walks over to him. Harry gladly accepts the offer with a nod. “Okay, no worries! You need to start with the right foot forward, then with the left foot you go to the side and the right foot closes next to it. After that the left foot goes back, right goes to the side and left closes,” she says, standing next to Harry, so he can look at her feet, as she demonstrates his steps. “We could just start with that, and then we’ll just see how it goes. Is that okay?”, she asks with a soft smile on her lips and her head tilted to the side just slightly. It’s clearly visible how much she is looking forward to this and Harry starts getting excited as well, just from the happiness of (Y/N). She is like a little sun, the emotions radiating off of her and Harry happily soaks it up as much as he can. Another kiss to his lips and she walks over to press play. 
The first few notes from the song fill the living room and (Y/N) makes slow strides with elongated legs, bending her knees softly once her feet touch the ground. She reaches for Harry’s hand who doesn’t hesitate to pull her closer once she’s near enough. His other hand finds its place in between her shoulder blades with her arm draped on top of his, while she holds onto his shoulder.
They slowly take their first steps, swaying back and forth to the rhythm of the song playing. After a while Harry feels comfortable looking up and not worrying about stepping on (Y/N)’s toes, he is greeted with the heart shaped eyes of his girlfriend. She seems unbearably lost in the moment, only has eyes for him and as he slowly adds a turn to each of his steps, which lets their basic step move them around the living room in a circle. “Thank you H. Thanks so much for doing this with me”, she whispers in a small voice. A soft gaze still in her eyes, which Harry returns with just as much softness. “Anything for you. Love seeing you this happy.”, he returns softly, letting go of his hand on her back to twirl her on the next step. (Y/N) giggles as she is spun around the room.
They quickly fall into their self made dance routine, pick up on the ques of each other and find a pattern according to the music, varying some spins and turns in their basic step. When the peticularly picked song comes to an end and another waltz starts playing, Harry twirls (Y/N) round one more time to pull her closer to his body afterwards, shifting their waltz steps into a slow dance. “Love you so much, petal”, he mumbles as he presses kisses to her neck. A deep sigh comes from (Y/N) as she melts into his touch. “I love you more.”

a look ahead
my loves, i've had some time away from this site and it's given me a bit more clarity as to what i want my blog to look like in the future. i don't know if this comes out of nowhere to any of you because i don't tend to announce my decisions to the internet, but since this is going to (directly or indirectly) impact y'all, i thought it was only courteous to tell you that there'll be some changes made around here in the next couple of weeks.
what is that going to look like?
come september, i am going to start blocking minors as well as ageless, blank and/or empty blogs.
apart from a writing challenge submission i'm set on finishing, i'm not going to be posting any fics for a little while.
sadly, that also means time after time is officially going on hiatus for now.
i've been thinking about these things for some weeks now and even though i feel like i'm letting people down in a way, i feel like this is the right move for me at this point.
there are several reasons for all this, if anyone cares <3
why block minors if you don't write explicit stuff?
excellent question. the truth is that i considered making my blog 18+ a year ago when i created it, but didn't. the main reason for that was that even if someone puts an age in their bio, i have no way of double checking that, so i thought, why bother. but the truth is that i've grown uncomfortable with the thought of literal children interacting with me, whether i post explicit stuff or not (and i have reblogged explicit fics more than once). i don't want to have to worry about these things when i'm just trying to enjoy my time on this corner of the internet. of course, i still have no way of checking this, but i still want to establish this boundary for my own mental wellbeing.
my main blog will remain all ages and i will continue posting on ao3, but i don't want any minors around on my writing tumblr anymore.
what about blank/empty blogs?
this is a trend i've only really noticed once i started posting my writing on here, and it seems to mostly pertain to the people who don't know how tumblr works and are unwilling to learn, or bots. just put something on your blog. if the only thing i can see on there is the list of people you're following and your likes – particularly if i can see that you're mostly liking fanfic but not reblogging anything – you're getting blocked. if you reblog fics with a sideblog, that's completely fine of course, but put something else on main then. support gif makers. support artists. support shitposters, i don't care. just reblog stuff. that's what this site is for.
what about your writing?
i told you only yesterday that i have a whole pile of wips right now, and i do, but the truth is that i'm exhausted. i put a lot of pressure on myself when it comes to my writing, and the truth is that i feel like that's part of the reason i think it's good, but it's simply not sustainable. i started a new job back in june, and i'm about to start working on my thesis, and what should be a hobby is burning me out. the same thing happened to my reading habit, and it's just sad to witness.
i'm currently hoping that by taking out the constant urge to post something, anything, but make it amazing, i can actually enjoy writing a lot more again. (don't get me wrong, i still enjoy it, i really do, but i need to do it without the whole immediacy part of it for a while i think.)
what does this mean for time after time?
i mean, let's be real here, updates have been scarce at best anyway. i started this series with a lot of momentum and then slowly teetered to a standstill against my best intentions. again, i hope that by taking away the pressure to post as fast/good/much as possible, i will find myself doing it more again, and doing it more gladly.
this series truly is my everything and i will finish it, but i want to have a few chapters already pre-written the next time i post a part. that way, i hope there won't be as much time between updates, either. depending on how long it takes me to get to this point, i might do a weekly chapter reblog or something to remind y'all what was going on lmao
*
hope y'all understand and i'm sorry if this is disappointing but it's my blog and i'm asking you to respect my boundaries. kay thanks bye <3

Your gfx and gif style is so awesome and distinctive. I can recognize your style and I love it. You always find the most beautiful words to create a complete piece. You use so many textures and different techniques to comunicate things that other way would be intangible. Seeing your works of art feels like fresh air because it's so unique 💜💕💜💕💜 and you inspire me to want to create more. The circumstances around here are always changing, and sometimes affect people in fandom, specially content creators and artists like you, but that doesn't change your talent, that doesn't change the beauty inside you that is the beauty you put on the world with your creations. I know how it feels to be discouraged from doing something you usted to love. I understand your pain and what you're going through. Remember you are admired and appreciated 💙💜💙
You always find the right words to say… thank you, karen. I just can’t seem to shake off this huge insecurity, I really need to work on that, it drives me insane. I constantly put myself under this great pressure to please people and it often blocks my creativity, self-esteem and composure, and then I start being overdramatic about a hobby on a website. I’m so grateful that you took the time to shower me in so much love (once again), I’ll cherish your compliments, they really are lifting my spirits right now and make me want to do something simply because I know you’d look forward to it. Although I shouldn’t be too dependent on others and their opinions of my works, it still motivates me immensely. Thank you thank you thank you ❤️

🔥🔥🔥
Send me a “ 🔥 “ for an unpopular opinion.
I got... surprisingly passionate about these so I'm just gonna slap them under the cut
So this is something I noticed way more over in the twd fandom then i have here but people getting all up in arms over reblogging. Like yeah don't reblog threads that aren't yours and stuff, but this website is built on reblogging things from people and I have seen people get furious over someone reblogging literally anything from them. Memes, aesthetic posts, gif posts, you name it, even if they didn't make it. It is completely baffling to me and I honestly think that if you feel like absolutely nothing should ever be reblogged from you ever then you need to go somewhere else because this sight is built around reblogging, it's how we find new people to follow and interact with. People reblogging stuff messes with your activity page? Bro it's the year of our lord 2022, tumblr notifications have never been less functional, you should not be relying solely on them to keep track of things AT ALL, you will be hemorrhaging threads that way I promise
In that same vein, it's 2022, people need to learn to communicate with their rp partners about things rather then just vague posting on the dash and making everybody anxious. No one likes to see vague posting on their dash and I promise its not making anything better. Instead it makes everyone feel like shit. I'm an adult, with a job and school work, I don't want my hobby to add undo stress to my life. I have enough of that
And again, it's 2022 and I'm still saying this after 10 years in the RPC, but if you don't read and then break someone's rules they do not have to be polite to you about it. I usually am, because we all forget, but the one I see the most in my case is people either forgetting or disregarding my rule about text size. It's why I highlight it both on my rules page and my pinned post. Because it is pretty much the only hard and fast rule that I have. If I cannot read our threads, I cannot write with you. I don't mind having to remind someone once or even twice, but if that person is going to turn around and be an ass about it - which i've had happen on more then on occasion - I'm not going to waste my breath i'm just going to block them. However, if it's been a while since you've written with a person, no matter how well you know or knew them, you need to reread their rules! Things may have changed and it's always uncomfortable to have to tell a friend that they're breaking one of your rules adn you need them to change something.

The Artist-Shelby!Male! Reader x Shelby Family
Tumblr media
(GIF credit to @s-t-a-y-i-n-g)
MASTERLIST
(I have combined the 2 requests)
Requested by @cokecola4211​ : ‘Peaky Blinders imagine being the only deaf one in the family older then Finn but younger than John and being close w/ Ada, Finn, John, Polly and May and being the only artist in the family.’
‘Peaky Blinders imagine the reader being the younger brother to boys but older then Finn around the same age as Ada and loving art more then your family and Polly finding your art book of sketches.‘
Characters: Finn Shelby x Male!Shelby!Reader (brothers), Polly Shelby x Male!Shelby!Reader (aunt/nephew), Isaiah Jesus x Male!Shelby!Reader (platonic), Thomas Shelby x Male!Shelby!Reader (brothers), Arthur Shelby x Male!Shelby!Reader (brothers), John Shelby x Male!Shelby!Reader (brothers)
Meanings: (Y/N)=Your name
Warnings: Discrimination against deaf people, swearing, insecurities, fluff
(A/N: I do not know sign and I do not represent/am not associated the deaf community. If I have written anything incorrect or offensive, please let me know!)
                                           *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
(Y/N)'s eyes were squinting as he sketched, face almost pressed into the paper as he hunched over, which would result in an aching back later that day. He had the perfect canvas, a gloomy one but still filled with intricate detail. Sat on the edge of the canal, he watched the men throwing their supplies into the long boats, going about their daily work. It may have been a boring sight, but it was real, and (Y/N) had never wanted to sugar coat his work.
(Y/N) noticed movement in the distance, new people were arriving. He recognised the Peaky caps, instantly shoving his sketch pad and pencils into his bag and dashing away from the area. They didn't know he was here, they never knew where he was. Unfortunately being the only Shelby who couldn't hear made him isolated from his brothers and the family business. Although his brothers never left him out of games or outings as they grew up, (Y/N) found he had to come up with his own ways to entertain himself.
No one knew about his hobby, his passion. He had pondered telling his family, showing them his work, including the numerous portraits he had drawn of themselves. Though he was enamoured with his work, he couldn't predict what his family's reaction would be.
Luckily escaping without being spotted, (Y/N) managed to make it back to the main part of town, waltzing down the street like a Shelby should. Even though people cowered away and kept their distance, (Y/N) knew he only had 'respect' because his family would beat up anyone who dared to insult him...not that he would hear them anyway.
His brother, Finn, was approaching him, followed by Isaiah. They both smiled at each other, having had a good bond growing up.
"Alright, (Y/N)?" Finn signed and spoke at the same time.
Isaiah managed to sign a hello, he was trying to pick up words, though it proved harder than he thought.
(Y/N) just nodded.
"Well you're not are you? Come on, what's up?"
'It's nothing.'
"Fancy a pint? Don't have to talk about it if you don't want to."
(Y/N) playfully rolled his eyes but nodded once again. The three boys headed towards the Garrison, only to be stopped by their Aunt Polly.
"Hard at work or hardly working?" Polly fluently said and signed.
'Come on Aunt Pol,' (Y/N) sighed,'it's not like Tommy has got us doing any work.'
"Well you three can come help me then. I've got lots of crao that needs to be moved out of the garden shed. And you three always go on about how strong you are."
She smirked as the boys groaned, not waiting for them to follow her. They mumbled the whole way, Finn making sure to involve (Y/N) still. Isaiah didn't mind being left out of the conversation, he was with Finn all the time, he just felt bad that he couldn't communicate with (Y/N) more.
As soon as they entered Polly's house she was ordering them what to do. The boys shed of their hats, coats and jackets, knowing they would no doubt get sweaty during this task.
Polly gently placed her hand on (Y/N)'a back to grab his attention."Hand me that love, I'll run it upstairs for you."
She was referring to his bag which he instinctively held away from her.
"What have you got in that bag? You harbouring drugs for Tommy?"
When he didn't move, her face hardened.
'It's nothing. I might be going out later so I'll leave it down here.'
"Are you lying to me?"
'No! Why can't you just leave my stuff alone?!'
"Alright, I'm sorry. Leave it wherever you want."
(Y/N) realised that he had made his aunt more suspicious of him. He just wanted to keep this little thing to himself, not have it corrupted by his family. (Y/N) only imagined what they would say if they saw how he spent his time. Hesitantly hanging up his bag, (Y/N) stared at it for a few more seconds before forcing himself to walk away. He just had to trust that Polly wouldn't snoop.
Of course he had been wrong.
Polly felt terrible for doing so, but she had to ensure (Y/N) was alright. What if he had been dragged into doing something he didn't want to? Trying to prove himself just because he was different to his brothers? She would never forgive them if that was the reason. He was deaf, he wasn't insane or uncapable of leading a normal life. Polly made sure she had the boys doing something that would take them a while to move before heading back inside to seek answers.
She didn't feel the need to sneak around her own house, she was doing this for the good of her nephew. The bag was hanging by its strap, she didn't bother taking it down, diving straight into its contents. Rummaging around carefully, she couldn't see anything out of the ordinary, deciding to pull out items in case something was hiding in plain sight.
She pulled out the sketch book (Y/N) had been hiding all this time. Slowly opening it, she inwardly gasped at the sight of herself in the front page. It was an extremely detailed portrait, as if he had stuck a picture on the page. She flicked through the papers, seeing that everyone had been drawn in the family, there were even sketches of random people in the streets, like a moving picture; he would have had to memorise so much if he was capturing people on the move.
Although she was relieved to know her nephew wasn't caught up in a drug war, she was hurt that this was what he was hiding. Why would he cover up his talent? She had been in such a trance with his work, she didn't notice (Y/N)'s footsteps approaching until he was right beside her.
(Y/N) snatched the book out of her hands, eyes wide in shock that his own aunt would go behind his back.
"(Y/N), sweetheart, I'm sorry!" Polly quickly signed.
'Why were you looking through my things? That's private!'
"I was worried!"
Finn and Isaiah had heard Polly's pleading tone, becoming curious and joining the argument.
"What's going on?" Finn asked.
Neither of his family members answered.
"Well?"
Polly answered, not signing."Your brother is very talented and isn't sharing his work with anyone."
'Don't speak without signing! You know I'm shit at reading lips!'
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Polly corrected herself."(Y/N), please show them. Please."
"Come on, what's in your hands?" Finn had a soft expression on his face, not wanting to push away his brother just as their older ones had.
(Y/N) was clutching to his work. Finn and Isaiah weren't known for their love of the arts. They could mock him. This could be the thing that pushed (Y/N) out of the family. But Finn wasn't giving up, holding out his hand for the sketch book. (Y/N) begrudgingly passed it to Finn, turning away to avoid the look of confusion and mockery that was sure to follow.
He felt a hand on his shoulder turn him around, Finn's gleaming face appearing. He had the book open on a page of himself, the other side had a drawing of him and Isaiah together.
"This is amazing! I mean, it helped that you had a handsome model." Finn smirked.
"Tell him that I think it's great too." Isaiah nudged Finn.
"Is says you're great too. Why were you worried?"
'A Shelby who's deaf and sits around drawing? Not bringing much to the family name, am I?'
"That's bullshit and you know it."
Polly huffed."Finn."
"But it's true! I could use all the swear words or none and it would still be right. You've got to start showing these, maybe sell them!"
'I don't know how people would react.'
"They would see a great artist."
'What about the others? Tommy, Arthur, John?'
"They're your bothers," Polly intervened,"they should support you."
'They'll hate me even more.'
"Why do you think they hate you?"
'Because they never try to speak to me. Not like you two do, even Isaiah tries!'
"They don't hate you. And you will show them your work. I have no doubt they'll be full of praise once they realise how talented you are."
(Y/N) watched anxiously as Polly displayed his work around the front room, thinking she was going way over the top with this. Part of him was happy that she was so proud of him, and he liked how Isaiah and Finn were looking carefully at each one (though mostly admiring the portraits of themselves). Polly had lined up the photos of his three older brothers together, and another one of them in their war uniforms. He hadn't drawn that when he was younger, he had suddenly had a memory flood back of them one day and wanted to draw it; the three of them were sat together drinking, it was the day before they left for all those years.
Polly was still fussing over her arrangements when they heard the front door being unlocked. Everyone looked to the door to the front room, noticing how tense (Y/N) had become.
"We a fucking art gallery now, Pol?" Arthur joked as they walked in.
But instead of joining in with the banter, it at least making a comment, the three eldest brothers were silent. Their eyes were immediately on the drawings of their families, wondering who on earth had done them.
"They're good, aren't they?" Polly said to them, signing to (Y/N) too before winking at him.
"Who's been drawing us? It's a bit creepy innit'? You know, cause we obviously didn't know." John ruined the moment.
'What did he say?' (Y/N) asked Finn.
Finn rolled his eyes."He's just being John."
"Oh, look at that handsome man. Clearly he's a model." Arthur cackled.
"So, who drew them?" Tommy asked.
"Would you lot include your brother." Polly hissed, though did not sign. She began signing again,"(Y/N) did them."
Tommy, Arthur and John turned to face (Y/N), surprise on their faces. Arthur glanced back at his portrait, a big grin spreading across his face.
"I love it!" he signed, very grandly."Captured my beauty."
(Y/N) smiled, releasing the tension in his shoulders as he relaxed.
"Not bad." John said. He only grasped the basics of signing, Arthur was just that bit more advanced, but not by much.
Tommy stood in front of (Y/N)."Can you paint?"
'Yeah, I just never have time to.' (Y/N) sheepishly said.
"My house is missing a portrait of me. I want one with a horse, can you do animals?"
(Y/N) nodded.
"Then I want you to be the one to do it. A big one too."
Polly gasped, amazed for the second time that day. All of (Y/N)' a worries flew out of the window, cheeks hurting from smiling already.
"I have a free evening tomorrow. Come by the house at four and we'll start. I want it in time for the gala I'm holding." Tommy reached into his pocket, pulling out a handful of notes."And buy the best tools you need, only the best."
(Y/N) vigorously signed thank you over and over again. When he saw how much money Tommy had given him he almost fainted.
"Right, Finn, Isaiah, I need you for a job. Don't forget (Y/N), four o'clock tomorrow!"

boy next window
chapter one | chapter two 'new beginning'
Tumblr media
gif by jaemincrossing
hwang hyunjin x reader
synopsis : the way his eyes squint whenever he laughs or chuckles, it makes your heart warm and focus on only him, too bad it would be the last time you'll see each other, you thought
song recomendation for this chapter:
All the goosebumps that were on your skin were now all gone, thanks to the warm building that you entered. Even though it was warm it didn't feel like home, there were people arguing and yelling at each other making your head ache. You quickly entered the elevator and clicked on your floor.
The button didn't react, nor did the elevator move. So you had one option left, walking the stairs like always. You walked out of the elevator with a heavy sigh leaving your mouth, you already stood long enough in the rain and now this.
You walked all the way up the stairs, thankfully you lived on the third floor. Otherwise you would have to walk way more.
Once you arrived at your door you rummaged through your pocket, furrowing your eyebrows when you couldn't find your key. You did pull something out though, your handerchief.
It was a bit damp, suddenly the boy appearing in your thoughts. His voice, his smile, his.. everything. All perfect. And you didn't even ask for his name. Before you could get too distracted you put the cloth back in your pocket and rummaged through the other one, soon the cold item hitting your fingers.
You unlocked your door and entered your apartment, locking the door once you closed it. You kicked off your shirt and his jacket. wait-
His jacket, you were still wearing the boy's jacket. Your eyes widened. This was probably why he grabbed your wrist before you entered your bus.
You nodded before standing up, he stood up too. When you walked towards the bus he held onto your wrist softly, making you turn your head. "hm-?" you hummed, looking at the boy who was looking at you. "don't catch a cold" he smiled while letting go of you. He looked like he wanted to say something else but he just shoved it away.
How are you supposed to give his jacket back when you'll never see him again? and what will you do with it? you felt so bad, you now remembered him saying that he usually walks home. And now he doesn't even have anything to warm him up.
You shook your head, sighing at yourself in dissapointment. Carefully, you hung his jacket onto one of the stools at your counter. Now grabbing a glass of water and placing it under the faucet. You lifted the lever multiple times but no water was coming out. You should've known. You sighed placing the glass onto your counter and soon reaching for your mini fridge.
You grabbed a water bottle and twisted the cap open. You needed to move, so badly. Imagine there would be a zombie apocalypse and you can't even drink from your faucet?
You shook your head at the stupid thought, soon drinking from the plastic bottle. Once you finished you threw the bottle away and went to your room, sitting down at your desk and opening your laptop.
And just as if your laptop was reading your thoughts like always an advertisement popped up, a new apartment opened near your school. And they made it extra cheap just for the students. You clicked on the link out of curiosity. There are two buildings for the apartment, one for boys and the other for girls. The apartments looked very pretty. They had a living room with a mini kitchen, a bedroom and a normal sized bathroom. It looked perfect. There was even an extra mini room for hobbies. You had to get this apartment immediately. You dialed the number and out of your surprisment someone immediately picked up.
"hello! alwaysgreen's assistant speaking, how may I help you?" a woman's voice spoke, you gulped before speaking. "hi! my name is Choi y/n and I'd like to buy one of the student apartments" you spoke while scrolling through the website. And just like that, you got a room. Since they already cleaned everything and were ready you could already go there, but of course you would need to pack first.
You grabbed multiple boxes from your closet and folded them into their shape. You spent your whole day packing in and telling your current apartment's building owner that you would be moving, at least they were kind enough to help you bring your boxes to your new building as a goodbye.
Before you knew it it was dark already and your apartment was empty, it felt so different. You handed the last box to one of the workers while thanking them. You were finally moving out of this dusty place.
You left the apartment and locked the door, giving the keys to the man in a suit in front of you. "goodbye miss Choi" he smiled, taking the keys and putting it in his pocket. "bye." you spoke in a cold tone, you didn't have the strongest relationship with this man and it was noticeable. You told him about all the problems in your apartment multiple times, and what did he do? nothing.
You didn't even say anything proper or kind before walking right past him and jogging down the stairs, wearing one of your now most dear items. The boy's jacket, when you finally exited the building you met the cold air again. Quickly you zipped up the thick padded jacket up and put on the hood, entering the next following taxi.
You told the driver the address as he soon started driving, and right when you wanted to look outside and enjoy the view your phone started ringing. You grabbed your phone and stared at the screen.
'mom' that's what it read, you felt scared but what could she do? she's in China. You picked up the call and pressed your phone against your ear.
"what did I just hear!?" she yelled, your ears ringing. "did you just move out that apartment that I paid for you!?" she finished her sentence. "do you even know how bad that place was!? the shower doesn't even work properly!!" you spoke back. That's when she hung up, you were so confused. She never really did this unless she would go to you and yell, but she's not even in Korea right now.
You sighed placing your phone back into your pocket, you stared out the window for minutes and minutes, until you heard a raspy voice. "we arrived." the driver spoke, you handing the male some money before stepping out of the vehicle.
Thankfully it wasn't raining anymore, there was even more sun appearing now. You looked around hoping to see a rainbow, and that's when you saw it. The colours looked so pretty, you hadn't seen a rainbow in a while and seeing one right now made you feel lighter, as if all your stress dissapeard.
And then he appeared into your thoughts again, how you thought to yourself that his squinting eyes looked like rainbows. Why does everything you look at remind you of him? this has never happened before.. and you barely even knew him.
You shook your head, turning your body and facing the long building. There were a bunch of students entering the doors, even groups of girls laughing and smiling together. You took a deep breath before walking towards the doors, they automatically opened and closed. Everything felt.. expensive.
You walked up to the counter, a smiling lady behind it looking at you. You stopped your tracks in front of her. "how may I help?" she asked, still with a smile on her face. "I bought one of the rooms under the name Choi Y/N" you smiled back at her. Her fingers moved quickly on top of the keyboard as she inspected the monitor.
The lady then opened one of the drawers under the desk and gave you a card which read '114'. "just insert the card into the locking device and enter a password" she explained, handing you the card which you gladly accepted. "the elevator's on the right are for the girls" she finished.
"thank you" you spoke before walking towards the elevator on the right, you slowly entered it and pressed on the button which read '1', the elevator doors soon closed and moved up.
You haven't been on an elevator in a while, thanks to the previous apartment you lived in. Then suddenly something caught your attention, you turned your head, now looking at a big map on the wall.
It showed the rules and the way the building looked, this would come in handy when you're lost.
no loud noises
do not scream, except if needed help
no boys allowed to live in this department, but they are allowed to visit
And way more, but before you could read more the elevator doors opened. You tugged onto his jacket when leaving the elevator, soon walking through the hallways. There were food vending machines almost everywhere, you appreciated how much they cared for the students as well as the price. Places like these should be everywhere.
You soon arrived at your apartment, the door didn't have a key hole, only a device to enter your password. You inserted the card the lady gave you, the device screen immediately changed to: 'please enter a password'
You chose something long, your phone number. It would be hard to guess this... you think, well you never tried it before. Once you entered it the door opened, and you widened your eyes.
The apartment looked exactly like the one on the website, the walls were white and the furniture was super pretty. The boxes from your previous apartment were already inside.
You sighed to yourself, realising that you had to unpack everything even though it got even darker outside. You brushed your fingers through your hair and chose to explore the place first. You entered the so called bedroom, the walls and floor were the same as in the living room. You walked around, you couldn't wait to decorate it and just fall asleep.
You looked at the grey curtains that were half closed, you slowly walked up to them and fully opened them. You smiled looking outside, but that smile soon dissapeard. Your window was right in front of the other building, the 'boy's' one. Completely ruining your view.
"what in the-" you spoke, staring at the window in front of yours, the apartment's curtains were closed, and right when you wanted to close yours again they the one in front of you opened. You widened your eyes.
The boy in front of you widened his eyes too, you froze. It was no one other than the boy at the bus stop.

their favorite clothes
Tumblr media
— .。*゚+.*.。 2.5k followers milestone
character(s) : multiple characters (bnha)
legend : [Y/N = your name] gender neutral— they/them pronouns, quirk not mentioned
headcanon type : fluff, spice if you squint but not nsfw (x reader)
note(s) : this is what would be their favorite clothes (that they own) on you. thank you all for 2.5k 🤍 also im so sorry for the lack of posts, and im gonna be real about this— it was my writer’s block 💀 good news, it’s gone now :)
‿︵‿︵ʚ˚̣̣̣͙ɞ・❉・ ʚ˚̣̣̣͙ɞ‿︵‿︵
midoriya izuku
↛ honorable mention — his hero costume
↛ he absolutely loves it when you wear his shirts, like— i’m sure you know which one im talking about. the one that says ‘t シャツ’ i don’t know! his fashion sense isn’t the MOST fashionable, and the t-shirt itself isn’t very appealing to most eyes, but he absolutely adores how it looks on you. look, you can be the tallest being on this earth, to the point it makes his shirt look like a crop top on you, or you could be literally 4’5 and make the shirt look like a dress, he doesn’t care at all. he just loves how it looks on you, it makes him feel all warm on the inside, kinda like a *heart squeeze* moment, y’know? and no, there’s no exaggeration. he’ll just stop, and look at you when you wear his shirt. it’s just so personal, and he loves it.
bakugou katsuki
↛ honorable mention — though sweaty, his hero costume, and literally any other piece of clothing he has.
↛ then again, you could literally wear any kind of clothing of his, and you could have a ring adorning that finger of yours by the end of the day. he likes to pretend he’s absolutely not infatuated by the way his clothes look on you. if you force him to say what’s his favorite, he’ll mutter out ‘black tanktop’ because how could he not say that?? have you seen how delectable you look in that tanktop of his? it’s a surefire way to render him speechless, from the moment you walk into the room, to the moment you leave it— those gorgeous red irises will be on you. similar to midoriya, katsuki doesn’t care if you’re tall or short— just,,, wear his clothes, and if you want to seal in the future, then the black tanktop is the way to go. because he’ll probably get mad at you if you don’t wear his clothes to bed
todoroki shouto
↛ honorable mention — shouto’s button up shirt from his old hero costume, even though his old hero costume was HIDEOUS
↛ in his opinion, he loves anything on you (yeah, even a trashbag) but he does really love how you wear his turtle neck, he loves the fit. how it either loosely fits on you, or how it snuggly hugs your form— it really doesn’t matter. anything you wear would look really high end in his opinion, quite literally anything. but his black turtle neck really takes the cake. oh boy, when he saw you wear it for the first time, he froze up and almost charred his feet, cheeks firing up a warm red to match his scar. he has the money to buy a bunch of replicas of that exact black turtle neck, and he could give it to you but,, no. how could he do that? how do you look absolutely stunning in such a simple turtle neck? he doesn’t really know. anyways! he eventually ends up unofficially making the turtle neck yours, and he only wears it when he needs to douse his scent into the fabric once more— when it has almost completely faded away.
kirishima eijirou
↛ honorable mention — i wouldn’t say there’s an honorable mention, since he’s extremely loyal to his statements.
↛ his boxers. there, i’ve said it— and wait for a sec, let me explain. it’s not what you think, and you’d expect it to be like that but no, it’s not. at first, he thought you looked great in something simple as his sweater, or shirts but you were running out of clothes during laundry day— so you rummaged through your boyfriend’s clothing drawer, and pulled out a pair of red boxers, with black trimming. when he saw it peaking under your oversized shirt, he swear he saw the heavens. and from that moment on, you found yourself frequently wearing his boxers, but more specifically that pair. no, i’m serious— eijirou will get all pouty if you actually don’t wear his boxers, even when most of them are in the laundry. why does he like them so much? hm,, maybe it’s the security, and knowing that he’ll be the only one to see you in his boxers.
kaminari denki
↛ honorable mention — his boxers but you say no because he’s quite gross about it 🤢 anyways,
↛ his shorts. yes, they’re not the same as his boxers, but they’re the kind of shorts that you lounge in. now, i know you thought i was going to say “ooo he’s love to see you in a sweater with a lighting bolt embroidered in the middle!!”but then, the thing with these shorts was that he’s literally had them since he was in what,, the end of middle school im surprised they still fit, but they’re so dear to him? in a way that seeing you in those exact shorts makes his heart stop— only for it to start up again. thing with these shorts is that they’re oddly so,, pretty? i mean, his wardrobe is so questionable, but these shorts? there’s a mini reflective lighting bolt logo imprinted on the corner of the shorts. so quite literally, you’re seen with these shorts a lot— and the bakusquad give him hell for that 💀
monoma neito
↛ honorable mention — uh,, he does say that he ‘doesn’t know what you’re talking about! i don’t have more favorites on Y/N’ but you know damn well he does have more than one
↛ his hero costume, because well,, it’s very fashionable! but it doesn’t really look like he’s such a big fan of the entire ‘i wear your clothes!’ thing. because his clothes are his clothes, and your clothes look good on you anyway, end of the story! but if you do force him to say anything, he’ll admit that he does love seeing you in his hero costume. neito once walked in on you wearing his hero costume, and as to be expected— he made fun of you, but he did really like how it looked on you. but i suppose that’s the power you have on him, and he’ll admit it when he wants to, otherwise— he’s just teasing you for now. but pls wear it :,) he’ll basically be at your feet for the entire time
shinsou hitoshi
↛ honorable mention — a black sweater that has a silhouette of a purple cat printed at the center. it’s his favorite sweater, that’s why.
↛ his sweatpants. you and hitoshi had to switch clothes for a dare at a sleepover, and when he saw you in his lounging sweatpants, that’s what did him in. ever since then, he’s been quite obsessed with seeing you in them. hitoshi could care less about the sizing aspect, he just loves seeing you in his sweatpants— and it is quite a treat to come back from an especially gnarly day at school, and to be greeted by you lounging in his clothes, ‘instant recharge’ he says. he finds himself toying with the string of the sweatpants, when you’re on his lap, pressing kisses on his cheeks. anyways— if you want to kill him even more, then you should wear his sweater AND his sweatpants. he might as well just lock you in his room for him to keep forever (he’s not serious about that.) but it does surprise some people, because they never would’ve expected shinsou hitoshi to be the clingy/needy type. but you’re the only one that gets to see it indoors.
amajiki tamaki
↛ honorable mention — his button up shirt, i’m sure theres a gif of him wearing one in the anime somewhere, and i hope you know what i mean
↛ not really a clothing article he wears on the daily, but his cape. omg his cape. he sort of glitched out when he came back from interning, and saw you snuggling on the couch with his cape. like,, are you trying to unalive him? and he’s not slick about it either— everytime he comes back, and sees you using his cape as a blanket, draped over your shoulders, he nearly faints. it’s that intense, that’s why nejire and mirio brought his hero costume’s cape and gave it to you when it was time to sleep— he couldn’t get a wink of sleep because of the image of you with his cape, ugh! anyways, he does manage to leave it with you when he has to go away for a bit, because it says that it’s almost like he’s there with you. tamaki usually has to scramble on why he doesn’t have his usual cape.

ATEEZ Reactions to: Realizing they love you
A/N: Another one that's on my list of reactions I wanted to write simply because I think it's cute. As usual gifs aren't mine and credits to the rightful owners. x
Seonghwa
Tumblr media
You two were having coffee together at your favorite café when he just keeps staring at you. It's when you laugh at something he said that it hits him. Seonghwa gets that fuzzy feeling in his chest as he smiles at your reaction.
"Y/N..." Seonghwa whispers, his voice soft but still loud enough for you to hear.
"Yes?"
Seonghwa flashes you a soft smile as he reaches across the table and takes your hand in his, bring it to his lips to press a kiss against the back of it.
"I love you."
Your eyes widen at his words as you feel your cheeks heating up. A bright smile spreading across your face as you whisper, "I love you too Seonghwa."
Hongjoong
Tumblr media
Hongjoong asked you to come to the studio to ask your opinion about a new song he's been working on. One thing he loves about you is that you're honest. Since you've some experience with music he takes your suggestions very seriously. It's when you tell him 1 tiny thing you'd change about the song and he gets lost in his thoughts again when looking at you that it hits him.
Hongjoong smiles softly as he looks at you. You notice him not paying attention and chuckle softly. "Hongjoong, what's it?"
"Nothing, I just love you Y/N."
You giggle softly as you hide your face in your hands, making Hongjoong chuckle.
"Don't get embarrassed! It's the truth!"
Yunho
Tumblr media
Yunho lets out a frustrated sigh when he 'you died' flashes on the screen. Meanwhile you're cheering loudly next to him, getting off of the bed and doing a little dance. All his initial frustration disappears when he sees your happy expression as he feels his heart flutter.
"You're so cute Y/N."
You feel shy at his comment as you hide your face behind your hands. Yunho chuckles as he grabs you by the waist, pulling you closer to him until you're standing in between his legs. He takes your hands away from your face as he looks you in the eyes.
"I love you."
A bright smile appears on your face as you lean down to press a kiss against his lips. "I love you too."
Yeosang
Tumblr media
One thing you and Yeosang love doing is skating together. It's a new hobby you picked up thanks to your boyfriend. He was always doing it and you wanted to learn in too. So he decided to teach you. What you didn't expect was for him to be so patient. Yeosang was probably the best teacher you could wish for, and little did you know that he really enjoyed spending time with you like this.
Yeosang holds your arms as he helps you over a ramp, the smile on your face makes his breath hitch as he sees your sparkly eyes.
Once you step off the board and back on the ground there's a massive smile on your face. Yeosang chuckles as he pulls you in for a hug, holding you tightly as he rests his chin on your shoulder.
"I really love you a lot, Y/N."
Your eyes widen at his words as he hug him tighter, smiling brightly as you whisper it back. "I love you too, Yeosang."
San
Tumblr media
San always tries to be strong, but even the strongest people need a hug sometimes. Today was no different. As soon as he walked through the door you knew that something was up, and knowing your boyfriend he wouldn't come to you. So instead you went to him. You spot San standing in the bathroom, brushing his teeth when you come up behind him and wrap your arms around his waist. Pressing your cheek against his back as you hold him tightly.
San feels a soft smile creep on his face as he finishes brushing his teeth, putting away the toothbrush before turning around in your arms. He lifts your chin up to look at him as he asks, "Can you just hold me for a bit?"
"Of course, you want to be the little spoon?"
He nods his head as he smiles softly. You take his hand and drag him with you to your bed, where you get comfortable and motion for San to join you. Which he does. San moves down a little to rest his head on your chest as he wraps his arms around your middle.
You rest your chin on his head as you wrap your arms around him in return. "I love you Y/N. Thank you for taking care of me."
"Of course Sannie. I'll always take care of you."
Mingi
Tumblr media
Mingi is a cuddle bug. He always wants to hold on to someone and he especially feels that way towards you. He just wants to hold you all the time and wants to be close to you. That's how you find yourself on your couch, Mingi laying on top of you as his head rests on your chest, your fingers brushing through his locks as your other hand gently rubs his back. It's moments like this that he loves the most.
Mingi lifts his head slightly to be able to you, and when he does he sees you smiling brightly at him, making his heart flutter.
"What's it, sweetie?"
"I just love you a lot."
You chuckle softly upon hearing his words, feeling your cheeks heat up as you gently brush your thump across his cheek.
"I love you too, Mingi."
Wooyoung
Tumblr media
Wooyoung loves cooking, especially for people he loves. That's why he wants his members to taste his food all the time. With you it's no different. Wooyoung constantly tries new recipes that he finds online and wants you to taste them. When you come over and see your boyfriend standing in the kitchen behind the stove you can't help but smile.
You make your way over to him and wrap your arms around his waist, resting your chin on his shoulder to peek at what he's making.
"What are you making this time?"
"It's this new recipe I found only for a nice stew. It's supposed to brew for a while so I thought we could have it for dinner?"
You hum in response as you tilt your face slightly to kiss his cheeks. "Sounds good."
Wooyoung smiles brightly as he turns around in your arms, looking at you as he in return presses a kiss against your temple.
"I love you."
You return his bright smile as you whisper, "I love you too."
Jongho
Tumblr media
Being the maknae of his group Jongho is used to people taking care of him, but he actually loves to take care of people. It kind of annoys him sometimes when people baby him all the time when he's a grown man, so when you actually let him take care of you he's a little surprised, but very thankful that you let him.
It doesn't happen just that one time, actually throughout your relationship. Jongho was afraid that wouldn't happen because he's younger than you, but he was pleasantly surprised.
So when you hurt your foot during a football match he instantly runs up to you and takes off your shoe, examining your foot carefully to check if it's not broken. You let out a soft giggle when you see his worried expression. Jongho in return chuckles softly as he lifts you up, carrying you back to the house as he gently lays you down on the couch.
"I'll get you some ice. Be careful love I don't want you to get hurt." He says, going to the kitchen to grab some ice before coming back. Gently placing it on your ankle as he looks at you.
"I'll try, I just get competitive sometimes."
Jongho chuckles softly as he shakes his head, "That's why I love you."
You feel your cheeks heat up as you look away, making Jongho giggle. "I love you too."

Meeting and Dating Casper McFadden
Tumblr media
(Not my gif)(Requested by anonymous)
- Moving into a new home was never easy. Oftentimes, it meant packing up everything you owned, leaving a bunch of good memories behind, and traveling across the country to a new town where you’d have to make all new friends and renovate old fixtures.
- But there was something about your new house that made it both easier and harder to live in: the fact that it was haunted.
- Obviously your family didn’t find out about the ghosts until after they’d signed the papers and even if they were warned about it, they probably wouldn’t have believed the realtor, but none of that mattered now. Now you were stuck in a old house with a bunch of spirits, stuck until your parents save up enough money to move again.
- So what made the manor easier to live in, you may ask. Well, the fact that it came with a friend….
- You and Casper meet the day you move into the Whipstaff Manor. You’re wandering around, exploring the home and trying to figure out which room you want to live in, unaware that there’s a specter following you.
- The minute Casper sees you, he’s head over tail. You make his undead little heart race and have him second guessing his every action. Which is the main reason it makes him a while to formally introduce himself, he’s too scared that he’ll ruin his first impression.
- Sadly for him, his first impression still doesn’t go over well, regardless of how much he practiced.
- In his defense, it wasn’t anything that he did, it was more the fact that you were suddenly face to face with a phantom. Anyone would have freaked out in response to that, and they would have freaked out to any ghost as well; no matter how friendly.
- So, like the rational young woman that you are, you scream and take off like a rocket, dashing out of the room and down the hall to find a more secure and safe looking room to hide in until your parents get back from the store.
- He follows behind, attempting to calm you down and feeling downright awful for scaring you. Once you’ve locked yourself away into a broom closet, he gives you a minute to breathe before he calls out to you, telling you that he’s sorry and trying to coax you out so that you can talk.
- It takes you another minute to be convinced and to trust him when he says he isn’t gonna hurt you, but eventually, you do brace yourself and open the door.
- Once you do, you find that he really isn’t as scary as you’d originally though he was. In fact, he was actually sort of cute; in a cartoony sort of way, and he’s friendly to boot; so you wind up feeling a bit silly for being so frightened of him. And after you begin to think like that, the two of you begin to develop a close friendship.
- While his uncles might be incredibly obnoxious and annoying, you can’t deny that you enjoy having the ghostly presences in your home; especially when school roles around and you find yourself feeling like an alien with no one to turn to. You might not have any living friends in your town but you at least have a few see through ones at home that ensure you’re not completely alone.
- But, compared to your primarily platonic feelings, Caspers feelings for you were a lot more complicated. He valued your friendship and enjoyed having you as a pal, but he also had more romantic feelings towards you. In simpler terms: he’d had a massive crush on you from the moment you walked in.
- And though he’d have loved to confess his feelings and see if you felt the same, he knew that it was practically impossible for the two of you to be together; at least until you’d died …or until he was alive again!
- The minute he remembers the Lazurus he immediately erupts into a fit of excitement and joy. If you could get it to work, he could be alive again and the two of you could be together for the rest of your lives, either as friends or as something more, he honestly didn’t care which; though he hoped it was the second one.
- So he tells you about the invention and the two of you get to work. You take the wild trip down to his fathers lab, search around until you find what you’re looking for, load the contraption up with it’s necessary elixir, and pull the levers with bated breath.
- You don’t know what you’d expected to walk out of the machine but it certainly wasn’t this. Perfectly done blond hair, shining blue eyes, and a face that made you suddenly flustered to be in your best friends presence. He looked like a Disney prince and you were captivated.
“How do I look?” He asked nervously.
“Perfect,” you responded a little too quickly. “I mean, human, normal …living.”
- His face broke out into a smile and he threw his arms around you, pulling you into a tight hug. The action caught you off guard and made your heart race but you didn’t mind in the slightest.
- Once you’d finished hugging, he pulled away slowly and you found yourselves locking eyes. His gaze flickered to your lips and before you knew it, the two of you were leaning forward and sharing a kiss.
- His uncles may or may not have interrupted you but the “damage” was already done. You were just as hooked on him as he was on you and neither of you could be happier.
- Casper loves pda. He loves being able to actually touch you and be out in public and show the whole town that the two of you are together; even though half of them are confused as to who he is. 
- He touches you and holds you close whenever he can. He’s waited to do it since the moment he met you and now that you’re together; and he isn’t ice cold and only semi-solid, he enjoys every little ounce of affection he can provide and obtain.
- Handholding.
- Cheek kisses. 
- Long, soft kisses. They’re sort of a contrast to his usual hyper behavior, which is why, if you ever need him to calm him down and focus, all you have to do is ask for a kiss or make it obvious that that’s what you’re going to do. He skids to a stop and happily complies as he gives you an adorable little smile.
- Pet names aren’t really his thing but he does call you by fun nicknames that he’s come up with; usually a shorter or longer version of your name.
- Cuddling is a must with Casper. He absolutely loves it, no matter how the two of you do it. Sometimes you’ll lay on his chest, other times you’ll spoon, and other times you’ll face each other on the bed and talk until one of you dozes off.
- Speaking of: he definitely watches you sleep every now and again, which sounds far more creepy than it actually is. Like, you’ll be talking late at night and you’ll fall asleep and he’ll just look at your peaceful face for a while.
- If we’re going with the assumption that Casper maintains some of the aspects of being a ghost, I think it’s safe to say that he’s occasionally at least a little cooler than a normal human, which makes him the perfect companion for hot days.
- Being carried and flown around.
- Sometimes; especially prior to him being in the Lazurus, he forgets that you’re not a ghost and gets you into some uncomfortable situations. And after he turns human again, he definitely has to get used to not being able to go through walls and have things go through him when they’re thrown or fall.
- Testing out exactly what he’s still capable of doing and if there’s any limits to his new life. Is he perfectly normal? Does he have ghostly powers? Do the effects occasionally wear off during certain times or seasons? It’s all stuff you have to figure out.
- For a while after he’s brought back to life, he spends all day experiencing everything he missed when he was still alive. All the smells, sights, and touches; he runs around like Jack Skellington while you sit back and watch with a smile.
- Going to the mall. It’s one of his favorite places to visit, he just loves the entire atmosphere of the place; especially since he wasn’t really able to go and enjoy everything about it before he turned human again.
- Tv dates.
- Playing different games with each other. Board games, pirates, video games, you name it, he’ll do it.
- Sitting on top of the lighthouse with him.
- Enjoying the view from outside of the manor. You have the perfect view of the ocean from your garden so the two of you can always throw a blanket down and stare out at the sea together.
- Just goofing off with each other. Running around the house together, sliding down the stairwell, having him push you in a chair down the halls, etc. You’ve got a huge house to mess around in, why not take advantage of it?
- Dancing together. He told you he was a good dancer.
- Late night conversations. You can always talk to him about anything you want or need to.
- Catching him watching you a lot. He always has such a loving gaze when he’s looking at you, just seeing his face when he’s watching you do something or speak is reassurance that he really cares about you.
- Always having a warm and excited greeting when you return home from school. He also probably occasionally goes with you or at least walks you there or visits during lunch.
- He loves making surprises for you. Throwing you little parties or coming up with different ways to make you smile or cheer you up after school or whenever he can see that you’re feeling down is one of his favorite hobbies.
- He wants to be with you like 25/7 so don’t be surprised if he’s constantly bothering you with his presence. It’s a good thing you love him because if you didn’t he’d become very annoying, very quickly.
- Him just appearing at random is commonplace so your parents and you definitely have to take some time to get used to it. I mean he lives in your house and now that he’s human again, it’s definitely a bit easier than when he was a ghost, but still.
- Getting chairs pulled out and doors opened for you. He likes being a gentleman.
- Him cooking for you. He definitely tries to impress you with his skills and all the inventions he uses; and he just likes doing something nice like that for you.
- Discovering all his dads inventions and letting him tell you about them. It’s really quite fascinating to see how they all work and how excited he gets while showing you how to use them.
- I have a feeling that he doesn’t like winter; for obvious reasons, and whenever it comes around, all he wants to do is stay inside with you and do indoor activities. If you were to want to go out, it’d take you a while to persuade him and even if you did; or were only going out by yourself, he’d spend forever bundling you up and making up a bunch of rules to keep you safe.
- Probably dealing with his ghostly self every now and again. I have a feeling that the Lazurus machines effects occasionally wear off for a little while from time to time so while he’s alive most of the time, you do have moments of spooky transparency as well.
- Pranking each other and other people. He might be a sweetheart but he also has a bit of a mischievous streak.
- Him always wanting to show you whatever cool thing he sees, does, finds, or hears about. Just being able to share things with you makes him happy.
- Listening to his stories from when he was alive or the decades he wasn’t.
- Fixing up his room for him and hanging out up there with all his toys.
- Being gifted some of his mothers things. Dresses, jewelry, stuff like that.
- His uncles bothering the two of you. They’re constantly harassing and teasing you; just try to pay them no mind.
- Standing up for him when his uncles are being more awful than usual.
- He might be the only person you can really bond with in your town, considering the fact that whenever you have anybody over, they’re almost always harassed by his uncles and scared away. Which Casper may or may not be sort of happy about.
- Casper gets jealous pretty easily. Anytime another guy takes interest in you, he always feels the need to mock them behind their backs or be passive aggressively not so friendly whenever they approach you when you’re out with him. It’s best to not bring up guys in your class unless it’s obvious that they only like you as a friend; but even then he’d wonder why you need friends (even if they’re girls) other than him.
- He’s sort of overprotective of you. He just got his life back so he certainly doesn’t want anything bad happening and putting yours in danger.
- He absolutely hates fighting so whenever the two of you have an argument, he’s always quick to try and settle it and apologize; even if he doesn’t really think he’s done anything wrong.
- Saying “I love you” isn’t really his forte. He prefers saying and doing other things to show you that he does.
- The two of you sort of just have to go with the flow and see where your relationship takes you. You don’t know how exactly the rest of his “life” will go so you just try to enjoy the present and what you have right now.
